SOLVED - Preserve Scroll Position (please roll back the feature)

Hi all,

• Thank you for all your feedback, we will pass along to our team! It would help us to investigate further if you can reach out our technical team and share your file : here .
  Please also make sure to use your Figma account email, including a link to the file, and share it with support-share@figma.com as an editor on this file so the team can take a look.

• Please first try this workaround before reaching out the team here. As reminder, the issues are mainly related to the limitations with the new State management for prototypes update.
  For most users, this is because the layers do not share matching names. In order for top level frames to share scroll state, they need to have matching names according to this rule .
  => Tips: for the frame naming, you can have different names but need to be identical before the ‘/’. (cf. screenshot)

• I also switched the topic as “Idea” - feedback", feel free to vote up so we can gauge the overall feedback from this new feature ⬆️, and edited the title as “Preserve Scroll Position - (please roll back the feature)”.

Thank you 🙂

Not sure why this was changed. This is very confusing. Can you please put it back to how it was? Preserve Scroll Position in the Prototype menu? Or please provide a video explaining how to get the same expectation.
When I select fixed the object disappears 😦
IS there a video explaining how to make this work?

Can some please explain how to Preserve Scroll Position in a Prototype. In bullet points or some form of step by step process? I have wasted hours trying to figure this out. Thank you!

Not working for me. The notion that we all need to come to a forum to figure out how to use this is a sign that something isn’t quite right.

Just adding my name to this list here! Figma, we NEED the preserve scroll position as an easy add. I got the frame renaming to work but this is such a silly thing! It takes much more effort to organize multiple frames using almost identical names (and having to RENAME things) than to click or unclick a box! I appreciate you all wanting this to be automatic but then just make it automatic without the frames needing the same names! Otherwise, the box was much more convenient.

Why is this not working anymore??? Very frustrating!

Works with the naming convention like {frameName}/1 {frameName}/2 but TBH I think it’s everything but intuitive!! Would never have figured it out.

And thanks [Rifqi_Aditya_Heryadi] for sharing the naming convention trick!

I too am having trouble!

Hello! I am new to figma and completed my first prototype about a month ago. I just tried to work on it and discovered the same issue. so i updated all the frames to have the same name. My issue is that my screens have back and next buttons, but it depends on the user flow… they need variants. I don’t know how to resolve this except trying the main frame name with a variation indicated by a forward slash ‘mainframe / variant 1’ if I am understanding correctly.
